Re: horse ground training
Take your left hand and hold the lead rope as if it's the left rein. Pull the halter slowly toward yourself.
"Concentrate. Feel how much pressure it takes to bring that rope toward you. You should feel on your pinky how many ounces it takes. Throw it back out and do it again.

How many ounces is it taking to bring that halter back to you? Think of a specific number. How many pounds? How many ounces? One or two? 5 pounds or 5 ounces?
"How would you like your horse to be that soft? A pound or two doesn't seem so bad, does it? Actually, it's terrible.

John demonstrates his techniques for teaching a horse to lead and load safely. (60 mins, VHS)
Experienced horse handlers and novices alike will appreciate the proven loading techniques John Lyons shares. John clearly demonstrates and explains how to teach a horse to load in a trailer calmly, without risking injury to either the horse or the handler.
John Lyons further demonstrates his techniques for halter breaking a foal and an unhandled five year old horse. He shows you how to solve behavior problems like rearing up and pulling back while standing tied. Through perceptiveness and patience, John demonstrates how to gain a horse’s confidence and eliminate fear.
John has gained national and international recognition for his skills as educator and trainer. Both English and Western riders from all over the world travel to attend the John Lyons training symposiums to learn and observe his innovative techniques.
"Round Pen Reasoning", John Lyons first equestrian training video, has become the most sought after horseman’s video. "Leading and Loading Safely" is a natural sequel to his first video and is a must for horse enthusiasts who want to train their horse to have the "want to" attitude.
Total Running Time: 60 Minutes

Shipping Costs Too High?
If you are purchasing 3 or more products, you might find that this system starts charging an arm and a leg for shipping.
Nine out of ten times, shipping costs are accurate - but if you feel they're abnormally high, just send an email to me at kh@horsemanship101.com and let me know the situation. I combine shipping when possible and can drop the shipping charges in those cases to something more reasonable.

You can purchase online using your checking account or a charge card like VISA. Both methods are very simple:
To purchase an item, click "Add To Cart." After that you can look at other products or pages on my site. When you're ready to complete your purchase click on the "View Cart" button on any product page. You can also use it to change quantities. You will be given an opportunity
during this process to pay via your checking account or with VISA.
We use PayPal to handle our online transactions. (Why?) But, you DO NOT NEED a PayPal account to make a payment using a charge card. When it asks you to sign in, ignore that and look down the page. You'll find a link (it says "Continue") which allows you to continue without creating an account using your charge card.
You do need an account to pay by check (or "echeck"). To pay by check either sign in to your PayPal account (on the page mentioned above) or go to PayPal.com and follow the simple process to create an account. (You'll find a button at the top of their page marked "Sign Up Now.") Note that signing up to pay by check will take a few days as PayPal verifies your account. Also note that PayPal will not allow me to send any products until your check clears (usually in about 5-6 days).
